Waynesfield Motorsports Park
The 600cc winged mini-sprints would be the first feature to finish the
season. Sam Ashworth had his car repaired from a crash that sent him
flipping out of the lead position last week and wanted to finish the year
on a winning note. Ashworth quickly powered into the 1st position when the
race got underway. The youngster pulled away from the rest of the field
and it soon began to look like he would claim his 2nd win of the year at
Waynesfield. Jared Horstman started deep in the field and has steered his
mini-sprint to many victories in the last couple of years. Horstman held
the pedal to the metal and passed cars one by one as he progressed towards
the front. Ashworth had built a comfortable lead but as the race wound
down, Horstman seemed to be counting the laps. As the white flag signalled
the final lap, Horstman caught Ashworth and would get only one chance to
steal the victory. Horstman made his move in the final turn and slid by
Ashworth to edge him out at the finish line. Horstman was hootin and
hollerin as he climbed from his car in victory lane. Brad Munz from B rad
Racing Supply greeted Horstman in victory lane to present him with the
extra $100 that he added to the winner's share. Sam Ashworth finished 2nd
and Garry Loney rounded out the top three. Loney and Ashworth were the
mini-sprint heat winners.
